Where should I celebrate my 21st birthday in Washington, DC/surrounding area?

Question

Hello all!

I'm turning 21 this Wednesday, and I want to go someplace really unique to celebrate my birthday. I'd prefer something a little more exciting than the typical "dinner and drinks" scenario...

I love music and dance, all styles. I also enjoy fun, exciting, high-energy activities, and good food is a must (I'm open to any type of cuisine)!

If anyone has any suggestions, I'd appreciate it!

Answer 1

Bar Louie in Gallery Place / Chinatown

Answer 2

I love U Street/Cardozo area. You can literally park your car and walk from bar to bar.

Unique it is!!!

Answer 3

Pick Zengo or Jaleo. They both have great music and the food is excellent. Both Places were made for a good time. Also try Sakura, where some food might even be prepared tableside.

Answer 4

Marrakesh!!! It's a Moroccan Dinner with 5-6 yummy courses, Belly Dancing, and you feel like you're in another country when you're in there. It's close to Chinatown, so it's metro accessable and close to the clubs after you're done eating.

BD's Mongolian BBQ in Bethesda... pick what ever you want to eat and they will make it for you.

Answer 5

If you like high energy activities and want to remember your 21st for ever, then why not try skydiving, track day, plane flying, helicopter, microlight, rock climbing, skiing, snowboarding, surfing, jetskiing, deep sea diving

Answer 6

Come into the District and take the metro to Woodley Park.  Just North of the metro on the east side of Connecticut is a great Saki Bar!  So go have dinner and some Kompai!!!  After dinner go out into Adam's Morgan and progress from club to club dance and have fun.  

Another option go to Buffalo Joes for cocktails on the water in Georgetown at the base of 30th and K.  For Dinner go to Mien Yui and then cruise the Georgetown scene.  There are lots of club to go to along M and Wisconsin.

Have fun and make sure you have a girlfriend looking out for you!  Happy Birthday!
